HB 4131 Arizona House · 57th Legislature - Second Regular Session

technical correction; veterans

HB 4131 amends Arizona law to change the penalty for knowingly making false statements under oath about veterans' claims from a misdemeanor to a class 5 felony. This technical correction directly affects individuals who submit false information when applying for or claiming veterans' benefits. The key provision updates Section 41-607 of the Arizona Revised Statutes to increase the criminal classification for this specific offense. The bill does not alter veterans' benefit eligibility or access, only the legal penalty for fraudulent claims.
